Those 94 million Americans without jobs is a huge pool.
Add to that part timers and people working at smaller incomes than before. Those are all Trump voters. Job is a higher priority for most voters than eminent domain or New York values.
Trump people almost scare me more than Trump....Did Obama put something in the water?
Good challenge. Thanks.
[Mitt Romney was met with scorn. The Donald says the same thing.]
I support Donald and Cruz. I did not know that Trump supported partial birth abortion which is not cool. I do remember the scorn for Romney and still wish he was president.
No, Free Republic has not [jumped the shark] and has not declined in quality. You are still here as well as other loyal patriots.
It's an absolute cult of personality.
It's amazing the lengths that some of his supporters will go to to ignore or attempt to justify his leftist leanings, and to viciously attack and smear anyone who dares bring those leftist leanings up.
Although I am but a humble newbie, not having visited FR until Sept 2002 and officially joined a few months later, I disagree totally.
Back then, we did not have 7 years of an in-your -face unconstitutional megalomaniac playing at being president, and a GOP utterly unable to stop him.
Nor were we facing two new vultures struggling as to who gets the national carcass.
Nor were we facing a $20 trillion debt; nor were we facing armies of 7th century animal Mass murdering Muslims. all at the same time!
Desperate times demand desperate measures. The pablum of "let the rule of law deal with it" is meaningless, when it has been ignored with impunity for almost 8 years.
I'm afraid that business as usual, can't cope.
Not the GOPe, not the new improved Socialism, and certainly not the Clinton Criminal Enterprises, Inc.!
What a pathetic pompous pharisee you are.
Toss out some dishonest smears, then hide behind the Cross.
Perhaps one day soon they’ll wake up and utter the words in my new tagline.
FreeRepublic didn't jump the Shark, Cruz zealots did. Glenn Beck and Levin have the same problem because they will have no where to park when Trump prevails. Trump supporters however would have no trouble moving to Cruz if Trump flops.
first i haven’t decided politically on trump yet. if he were to go indie, i’d vote for him. he’s certainly a vehicle for destroying the gopes and their party and that is fine with me.
but, i suggest that you tread lightly on the accusations that half of FR are hypocritical Christians for supporting trump. that gets to be unnecessarily devisive, imo. it’s a bridge way to far.
trump certainly has a mix of immoral and moral businesses. he moves and functions easily in the circles of the worldly. but that doesn’t mean that God isn’t using him for His purposes. God has used sinners throughout the Bible to drive His purpose. trump’s sin is not necessarily his supporter’s sin. it depends on the heart and motive of the supporter. we love the sinner, we hate the sin. voting for trump doesn’t necessarily assign his sins to the voter. now if trump comes out and says, yes i’m going to promote abortion and i’m going to fight to increase the funding to pp for abortion, then you’ve got your case.
I’m with you, man. I’ve been a member of the site for 14+ years, and was lurking since pretty much the beginning. I think that 7 years of Obama have done so much damage and so dispirited so many folks to such an extent that they’re not thinking clearly. It’s like abused, runaway teens who are susceptible to joining cults. We’re into Jonestown territory, with The Donald as the Reverend Jim. Trump supporters, please step back from the ledge. I don’t know how anyone who purports to be a rational conservative could have watched the debate and have concluded that the petulant, unstable braggart spewing leftist talking points is somehow the great savior of the Republic. It’s insanity.
I’m with you I have been here since 1998.. I agree whole hardheadedly it’s like a dream world.. But I think some of these Drumph supporters are the old Ron Paul supporters!!!
Saw a post from a Trump supporter call Rush "Hush Bimbo".
Where have I seen Rush called that befor?
Oh, I remember- it was on DU.
Newbie.
Trump freaks out when asked about abortion again
And people wonder why conservatives do not trust this arrogant clown??
Convinced that trump has pulled a Jedi mind trick on many.
Trump wasn’t just a businessman he was a political activist. Never thought I would see Conservatives dismiss trump’s liberal activism...jedi mind trick must be the answer for that
Arrogance. People just can’t admit they were wrong about Donald Trump being a credible candidate worthy of support.
I agree with you 100 percent OneVike, FR did used to be a conservative forum, but now if you say anything bad about Trump, the Trumpetts are coming after your children! They can not see what a chameleon he is! Trump has managed to take advantage of the anger in this country after 7 years of Obama! They will just dismiss the flip flops of Trump over the years, so they just take another drink of the kool aid and keep following him!
Someone has his undies in a bundle
